One thing Feedly has nailed, is aggregation of FriendFeed conversations surrounding a blog post. Feedly surfs the FriendFeed waves and finds all relevant conversations surrounding a particular post. This gives you a great summary of what the FriendFeed community is talking about regarding that post. It also allows you to easily contribute to the FriendFeed thread(s) right from Feedly.
I love this feature. I love it so much, I want it on my blog. While Intense Debate and Glenn Slaven have done great work with pulling in FriendFeed comments to Wordpress, I want what Feedly has. I want it all, I want it now. I would love it if someone were to develop this as a plugin for Wordpress. If you could comb all of FriendFeed for every instance of your blog post and embed all those mini-conversations on your blog, it would be awesome, awesome to the max. So please, if you’re a Wordpress plugin developer (Glenn, AHEM!), or a blog commenting system (Intense Debate, Disqus AHEM!!), I ask that you observe what Feedly is doing with FriendFeed conversations and reproduce that on blogs. You would make me one happy blogger.

Wow, that's really cool! Thanks for posting about it Bwana. We're looking into it on our end.

Yeah, I'd love to be able to do that, but it's pretty much impossible as a WP plugin, because you'd need to trawl through looking for the URL. As soon as FF implements URL searching in their API, I'll be there

Would a title search work instead? I think this is what Feedly is doing

It would, but even that would be somewhat intensive to run, cause you'd need to run if fairly regularly to get all the new data. I'm just not sure whether it would be an expensive operation to run on the blog

I wrote about Feedly today (read post here http://bit.ly/ysGFT) and I agree, the integration is very well made. Backtype does work for me, and has gotten better over time.
Cheers!
